Do your parents have degrees?

[Brad]

I know my parents do not have degrees. My father has his highschool and my mom I think has her highschool as well.
What's crazy is that they have really good jobs that if people now a days tried to get they would need diplomas/degrees. My dad is a class A mechanic, which needs like 4 year degree or an apprenticeship to earn it yet my dad learned it by himself got certified through that.
My mother has an administration job which again, would require some college/uni degree/diploma...
Do your parent have jobs that require degrees/diplomas and do your parents or do your parents know if your parents hold the requirements?

Just something I was thinking about seeing all those posts on Facebook.

Nah my parents never had degrees. My father worked in a steel mill but surprisingly got 100k a year. My mom dropped out of college because she wasn't prepared enough mentally and was too homesick. She also blamed it on her bad knees but idk. (She had 3 knee surgeries before she was 18). She was an insurance agent.

They both had high school diplomas though

Surprisingly though, I want to go onto college and go through med school, so I plan on going into college/uni!

Yes my dad has something to do with Engineering from Trinity Hall Cambridge (not the same as Trinity College, so fun fact: Trinity Hall is always a pointless answer on Pointless hooray) and we sometimes drive past it in town and mum's always like YOUR DAD WENT THERE every time :/

And my mum went to hmmm I want to say Leeds but definitely to do English.

nope my mum and dad both met at a chicken factory! then my dad started to work offshore as a steward and got trained there to do other stuff (idk specifically what he does now lol). same with mum, she started to work in care homes for people with learning disabilities and started to get trained up as a nurse.
